@KronoS: Yes, I'm aware that the communities and sites are very different. Compared to Bicycles.SE: SF is a significantly larger site. SF has a larger pool of active close-voters. SF is significantly more tolerant of rude behavior. SF is better about closing not-constructive questions quickly. SF is much less likely to hold the hands of new users.
